"The Easier Way" joke

"Let me get this straight," the prosecutor said to the accused, "you came home from work early and found your wife in bed with a strange man."
"That's right," replied the accused.
"Upon which," continued the prosecutor, "you took out a pistol and shot your wife, killing her."
"That's right," the accused said.
"Then my question to you is, why did you shoot your wife and not her lover?" the prosecutor asked.
"It seemed easier," replied the defendant, "than shooting a different man every day!"
